About the Book

Weekends Underground is the first collection of an ongoing visual record.
In the spring of 2008 I brought three cameras along with me to various live music shows produced by friends in northern California.

Born and raised in Massachusetts, at the age of twenty Kim relocated herself to northern California. While photographing original Art work for the digital fine art reproduction company, Skylark Images she received her B.A. in Art/Photography at Sonoma State University.
During Kim's studies at the university she began to focus on photographing the local underground music shows she attended. Alongside photographing the performing bands, Kim captures the community that can appreciate and define it.

This one I actually did a few years ago for a class final assignment. It was more affordable and exciting to do than just hang matted prints!

I hope to create another book soon as I have hundreds of images. I am stuck in cold cold Boston for a bit so I figure unless I can actually find a punk scene here I will have time to actually work on the images I already have.
